Requiem of the Wolf Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Can I submit the painted picture of my guy at a later (but not too much later) time? This popping up will force me to re-arrange my painting schedule to fit him in,and two days isn't enough to get a HQ unit up to even tabletop quality as far as I'm concerned. If allowed I will modify this post to reflect the guy I will be using. Damian the Skald Codex : Space Wolves Unit entry : Wolf Priest Plasma Pistol, Runic Armor, Crozius Arcanum, Wolf Amulet, Fang of Morkai,Wolf Tooth Necklace, Frag and Krak Grenades. Acute Senses,Counter Attack,Independent Character, Fearless, Oath of War. 145 points. Special Instructions :Advance forward,Keep Shooting Plasma Shots into Enemy. Declare Enemy unit type to be object of Oath of War to gain reroll to hit. Extra attack due to Plasma pistol. Crozius counts as Power Weapon. Wolf Amulet gives 4+ invulnerable. Runic Armor gives 2+ armor save.Never needs more then a 3+ to hit in CC. Moving - [enter your instructions here] Advance forward firing every round.Charge when possible or Counterattack when charged. Shooting - [enter your instructions here] Shoot Plasma Pistol every round within Range.When in Close Combat,place Plasma Pistol against Enemies Crotchplate and change their religion. Psyker Powers - [enter your instructions here]Call on Russ's name to Bless the Dice. Charging/Assault - [enter your instructions here - this is where you’d give Parry instructions]Parry once when facing Powerweapons,Otherwise don't parry and just plant Axe into forehead of Opponent until he falls down. Voluntary Fallback - [enter your instructions here]Falling Back is something that happens to Other People,a True Warrior of Russ would never give ground. Plus going away from the fight isn't fun. http://i568.photobucket.com/albums/ss123/wanderingalleycat/th_photo.jpg First fig I ever painted so it isn't the best job but still decent I hope. For any moderator that decides to do a actual story of the fight involving Damian,against fellow Space Wolves he will be jovial if he wins,offering them a hand up and a tankard of ale. If he loses he will laugh and buy the winner the first round at the bar. In the unlikely event that he will end up representing the Fang in the wider challenge,he will treat every marine chapter but Black Templars with respect,congratulating them on a well fought battle win or lose. If he beats a Black Templar he will collect his geneseed and send it to the forgeship the owner belonged to. If he beats a Chaos marine he will harvest the geneseed with his bare hands (It isn't good to sully the Fang of Morkai after all) and then crush it.

Warhorse47 Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 My Brothers! Wolf Lord Garm Ironhand will join this Battle for the Honor of Russ. Wolf Lord Runic Armor Power Axe Wolf Tooth Necklace 145 points Moving- This is a canny warrior, a hunter of warriors. He will always use cover to get close to his opponents, then attack without mercy. Will gladly use grenades on his foes. Shooting -A well used and cared for bolt pistol has served him well for over 3 centuries. Psyker Powers -None, but his Runic Armor gives him a 5+ Invulnerable save against wounds caused by psychic attacks. Charging/Assault - +1 attack due to extra CC weapon, hits on 3+ due to WTN, Counter Attack, Power Weapon Voluntary Fallback - Once in Close Combat, Garm is cunning, he will fall back to allow his opponent to again try to charge him so he can counter charge. He is skilled enough to parry blows if needed. Also has, And They Shall Know No Fear, Acute Senses, Frag and Krak Grenades 2+ Armor save due to Runic Armor Garm is a warrior who is a little quiet for most Wolves. He has watched too many die to protect the Imperium to throw his men's lives away needlessly. Patient and crafty, he welcomes good ideas from his men that will let him take the advantage away from his enemies. http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff303/Kevin-Andra/001-45.jpg http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff303/Kevin-Andra/002-48.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wysten Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 I throught wolves were meant to be individal? Harkon is exactly the same as Gromgol, even right down to the sentances. O_o; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Caleb Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 If it aint broke, don't fix it. I was considering a lone wolf, but I just couldn't get my gear right. This is a decent build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotspur Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 I thought wolves were meant to be individal? Harkon is exactly the same as Gromgol, even right down to the sentances. O_o; "The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred with dust and sweat and blood." --Theodore Roosevelt What does it matter that there are two lone wolves that are the same? Yes, the codex/fluff does say that SW are individualistic, but that only applies to the great company to which they form a part. Answer me this: What rule states that similar SWs in separate great companies can't have the same tactics? Funny, but I don't ever remember seeing that one. Besides, like Caleb, I tried to figure out a Lone Wolf for this AoD as well but just couldn't get the points/wargear I wanted either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirax Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 I'm sorry, but that is exactly like my Lone Wolf, including the instructions; that's just how I play him. I'll admit, I copied the sentences, but only because I'm really bad giving instructions. Ask anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfsrage Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 @Brother Caleb You have no reason to take Saga of the Beastslayer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wysten Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Fair enough, forgive me if I was at all disrespectful. Just from my hobby background (Yu-Gi-Oh) a complete netdeck is one of those tabboo areas. It probably does not make a difference, just wierded me out when I seen it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Caleb Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 @Brother Caleb You have no reason to take Saga of the Beastslayer. I'm looking down the road. However unlikely it is that I make it to the next round, I want to be covered should I face a bike or a Nurgle Lord. Though I'm open to suggestions as to how to spend the 10 pts if I didn't take it.

Who knows...maybe you will need it against a brother WGBL with a TWM. I'm surprised nobody has submitted one yet to be honest. WGBL + SS + TWM = 145pts on the nose and would be a tough customer I also wonder if anyone is going to show up with a dreadnaught based on the elite rules Oh how I wish I were a model hobbyist instead of a vassalite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfsrage Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 If I had the model, I would run: Rune Priest - Chooser, Wolftooth Necklace, Jump Pack, Murderous Hurricane, Living Lightning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Requiem of the Wolf Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 If I had known about the elite changes I would have submitted the Dreadnaught,Extra Armor,heavy flamer,Wolf Tooth Necklace,Wolf Tail Talisman. As it is I need to re-highlight the model and I will submit a pic of my wolf priest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
